Peacock-dance

Like the green shades of peacock ooze freshness

I too, let my life ooze cheerfulness

Each day in my nest, I add wishes afresh

Each day for some reason, I get up from bed and stay blessed

Like the peacock’s green feather blooming

Each moment I live, I desire a fresh beginning

Life is short, my wish-list long and full of dream

Each day I live like it’s the last, thus I fulfil my desires to the brim

My world may be a bit small

People in it too, may not stand beside me tall

But my desires, I let them grow giant

The vision of my future, I keep a vibrant

If and when my day starts to get gloomy

I dance this peacock-dance, selfishly

Let myself breathe in life’s freshness once again for me

Discard the dark cloak that wishes to surround and circle me
